I've only got it on CD now.

Does it look like him?Indeed it does,and you know it! Supposedly the most
extreme music ever made and it's been rereleased on double vinyl at a store near you :-))
See this month's Wire. Also he loved to see a certain Sally dancing - that should do it !!
They changed the sleeve when I was looking out my back door but....they still use
the same guy on the new sleeve anyway; so if you know the guy you have it!



Image
Their first LP was named after a character in Washington Irving's 'Sleepy Hollow'...

The group name inspired by a character in a film starring Gregory Peck...a controversial film in it's day.

I don't think I've seen this sleeve before!

Wasn't this the contractual album he made to annoy the label?

Clues, once again, were all! I thought the picture looked like Terry Hall!

LOL That was the rumour anyway...Still it didn't stop me buying the album at a record fair years ago Side 4 was banjaxed but I reckoned it wouldn't have made much difference and I got it at a knockdown price too! Couldn't wait to hear how 'bad' it was when I got home though! It's definitely as non-musical as you can get and a definite party pooper! But I digress, as it set the scene for the likes of Sonic Youth,Neil Young,Loop,Spaceman Three,Mogwai, Oren Ambarchi and labels like Touch etc etc etc All hail the DRONE :-)))

Can't see the image you posted J, so here's mine:
